About this house rental


FROM SEPTEMBER 14 - SEPTEMBER 23 WE ARE OFFERING A 10% DISCOUNT FOR A 7 NIGHT BOOKING.

WE ARE ALSO OFFERING YOU THE OPTION TO VISIT FOR 4 NIGHTS AS OPPOSED TO OUR STANDARD 7 NIGHTS AS WE KNOW AFTER THE SUMMER SEASON THAT CAN BE A CHALLENGE.

WE ARE ALSO OFFERING A MORE RELAXED CANCELLATION POLICY DURING THESE FALL WEEKS.

COME VISIT LONG BEACH WHERE YOUR WALK TO THE WHITE SANDY BEACH IS JUST '1' MINUTE!

COME ENJOY A QUIET FALL AT THE BEACH!

Just a few steps to a white sandy beach called 'Long Beach' you will immediately be drawn to the gorgeous views of 'Twin Lights' (Lighthouses) and the rocky seashore that surrounds you.

Gloucester is a place to see, feel and experience history. The working waterfront and beauty have drawn fisherman, families, artists and visitors for hundreds of years.

Enjoy a Whale watching tour and bring your fishing pole and enjoy the freshest catch! Haddock, cod and tuna can be enjoyed from the Whale Watching and Deep Sea Fishing boats.

Lighthouses date from the 1780's, and the historic downtown has over 75 restaurants serving all kinds of cuisine along with the 'freshest' of seafood.

Galleries, world class museums and the period architecture will enthrall you.
Meet artists in America's oldest working artist colony on nearby Rocky Neck.
Come and experience Cape Ann!

'Long Beach' is a protected stretch of fabulous ocean and white sand, perfect for sunbathing, walking, shelling and even surfing! Great waves! Just a 2 minute walk from the cottage.

From Long Beach, which is steps from the cottage, you can easily see 'Twin Lights' on Thatcher's Island as shown in photo.

*'Good Harbor Beach' (walking distance from the cottage) is a 1/2 mile long barrier beach with a rocky shore and a salt marsh which is protected by sand dunes. Small shrub covered rocky 'Salt Island' is accessible at low tide.

*These 2 beaches are nestled in secluded coves with white sand and stretch for miles.
Everything is supplied for your beach vacation!

Beachcomber has 3 bedrooms: 1 King bed, 1 Queen size bed and 2 Twin Size beds.
2 full bathrooms with shower/tub combo (1 on each level)

There is one entrance with 15 steps up to the deck which opens into the kitchen. (Please see photo) We apologize, but Beachcomber is not handicap accessible.

Beachcomber sleeps a maximumm of 6 (this total includes adults/children and toddlers).
We allow 'up to' 4-5 cars in the driveway. (No parking in the street)

Beachcomber Cottage is a large 3 bedroom, 2 full bath home which sits on a double beautifully landscaped lot filled with flowering trees, shrubs and seasonal flowers which offers a very private setting to enjoy with family and friends.

Tucked away on the lower ground floor, is a small apartment which has a quiet, professional person who works full time.
The entrances are not shared and are 'not' close together. This does not interfere with the 2 upstairs floors which are 100% designated for your use and enjoyment.

Due to the heavy weekend traffic on Cape Ann, Check-in time is 3PM and check-out time is 9AM.

Our weeks run SATURDAY - SATURDAY mid June - mid September and have flexibility prior and after this time period on check in and check out days.
During the low season, we offer a 4 night stay at a per diem rate. Contact us with days you are interested in visiting and we will do our best to accommodate you.

We require a signed rental agreement which will be emailed to you once you have booked your reservation. Details upon booking.

We offer a moderate cancellation policy but suggest you purchase VRBO Trip Insurance for the unlikely event you should you have to cancel your reservation during the non-refundable time period (15 days or less from your arrival date).

The house was great we had 3 small issues 1 think the owners should stress more that the stairs from parking area are the only way in. Having knee problems it was an issue 2 The step into the kitchen could be marked with yellow tape. One older relative had a bad fall on it 3 A minor issue….. the coffee pot does not turn off automatically and we went off leaving it on. It ended ok but could have been a real problem None of these are huge issues but would be helpful for future rental

Wonderful beach getaway
Wonderful beach getaway
My partner and I had a lovely vacation at your home. The house had everything we needed and was right down the street from the beach. We especially enjoyed the front patio. My only suggestion for improvement would be to make clear in the listing that this is not a private home; there is a resident staying downstairs. The resident did not disrupt us at all (in fact she was quite friendly and even helped us!) but it would be good to have an accurate listing.

Comfortable and spacious/cozy house in a quiet neighborhood off the beaten path near Good Harbor Beach. We enjoyed our stay and would like to come back. Gloucester/maritime decor.
